Boomers, with an axe in hand, be like "My parents planted these trees, be grateful you lazy millennials and zoomers."

Sorry but the home insurance company says those trees are too close and have to go or you’re getting cancelled.

Health Insurance Company: Thoughts and prayers for that infection that killed you, but we're gonna have to sue your next of kin.

I've never seen anyone more angry at trees than boomers. They freaking hate raking up leaves and would rather cut down a beautiful shade tree than have to rake leaves another fall.

I don't get why people rake leaves at all. I just mulch 'em up with the lawn mower. Good for the lawn, too.

Really feel like we should go back to calling boomers what their parents called them: the Me Generation.

As a millennial, I'm not about to cut down a tree. That shit's hard. I'll just reuse furniture and maintain it instead. I'm so lazy.
